Japan East China SeaAwesome dive. Very deep, good vis, not beat up, lots of coral and fish, can also see turtles and sharks. Be careful of conditions, entry and exit is difficult with swirling and crashing water in even small swells if they are coming from the wrong direction (hence the name toilet bowl). There is a lip of rock at the edge of the bowl, at high tide it is like getting out of a swimming pool.

Japan East China SeaOne of the best dives along the seawall. I like to take a heading of 270 until it drops off then follow the wall to the right. Good wall dive that goes down to around 70 ft. with soft coral and nudis. I've also seen octopi here several times. Interesting rock formations too (some people compare to Yonaguni, but I don't agree).

Japan East China SeaEasy entry/exit. Not the greatest dive but good for beginners. Like most places in Okinawa, still plenty to see. Try taking a heading out to where you see a channel marker, there is a large rock with more to see. You can usually find lots of nudis here, sometimes cuttlefish.

Japan East China SeaOne of the best shore dives on the island. The water is very deep and visibility is often 100+ ft. Very large fans and soft coral formations. Often many lionfish, possible to see turtles and sharks. Wait for the weather to be just right for shore diving, entry and exit can be dangerous otherwise.

United States Atlantic (North American coastal)Excellent Shore dive!!!!
Just 100 meters fom shore, you are on top of the first reef.
Taking reference of the Anglin Pier, 50 meters past the end of the pier, you are on top of the second reef. marine life is abundant,and the coral is very much alive.

Netherlands Antilles Caribbean SeaThe Invisibles in Bonaire is one of my favorite sites to dive on the main land. It lies fairly close to the salt fields and is easy to find. Entry is relatively easy as well. Large sandy area before you get to the reef is teaming with Spotted Eagle Rays at first light in the morning(definitely worth waking up for). Garden eels are always present as well. The reef starts very similarly to all of the reef on Bonaire with about 40-50 feet of relatively flat to sloping reef and then drops off rapidly to the bottom at a little over a hundred. Visibility seems to be consistently better on this site for some reason. If you did hit the bottom and kept swimming away from shore, you'd end up on the second reef(quite a swim). Typically the reef holds common reef fish, plenty of coral shrimp and arrow crab as well as brittle star, Christmas tree worms, some nice resident adult drum fish, spotted eels, golden eels and an occasional sharptail if your lucky. If you keep your eyes peeled out between the reefs, you may see a turtle, eagle ray or as we got lucky enough to see, a huge, free swimming green moray.
